Police are renewing their appeal for information to help trace a 17-year-old reported missing.

Ingrid Daniels or Makuwaza travelled to Edinburgh from England in early October.

She had been staying in the Newhaven area, where she was last seen around 7.15pm on Thursday 13 October.

Ingrid, who is originally from Zimbabwe, is believed to have been in the Bishopbriggs area of Glasgow around 1am on Friday 14 October.

Inquiries have now shown that Ingrid has links to Manchester and London and may have travelled to either of these places.

Ingrid is described as black, 5ft 2ins tall, with a slim build and shoulder-length straight black hair.

She was last seen wearing khaki leggings, a khaki top, a teal fleece jacket with a hood, and white boots.

Ingrid is believed to have been in possession of a medium-sized dark-coloured hard shell suitcase, and a light brown coloured handbag.

Inspector Neill Whiteside of Drylaw Police Station said:  “We remain concerned for Ingrid’s welfare and are working to establish that she is safe and well.

“We believe she has travelled outwith Edinburgh and are liaising with colleagues in the transport network and respective police forces.

“Anyone who may have seen Ingrid since Thursday evening, or who can help with our investigation, is urged to get in touch.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 as soon as possible.
